781488 - The OGG video player becomes unresponsive when pressing Alt+Enter right after opening it

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Audio/Video: Playback, defect)

Description

[Ioana (away)]

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:15.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/15.0
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:15.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/15.0
BuildID: 20120808131812

STR:
1. Launch Firefox.
2. Load http://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/ in the browser.
3. Click the play button for the "Watch our intro" video.
4. Before the loading animation is displayed on the video player, press Alt+Enter.

The video player becomes unresponsive. It doesn't finish loading, nor can it be closed. The user has to refresh the page to fix this issue.

Notes:
1. If you press Alt+Enter after the loading animation start being displayed, the video flickers once and it keeps the play button on it while playing - this might be related to bug 781470.

2. This issue also reproduces on the latest Aurora (08/08) and Nightly (08/09) builds. It reproduces back to Firefox 4.0, so it's most probably not a regression.

The only way I can reproduce is by pressing alt+enter *before* the video element is added to the DOM. I verified using the "Inspect" devtool: there is only three divs in the black box.

This might not be a video issue, but rather the lightbox widget that is listening to the "Enter" keypress event (I can reproduce without having ALT pressed) and does something with it.

Does this issue still occur?

Comment 3

[Daniel Bodea [:danibodea]]

This issuer is nop longer reproducible because the web page on which it occurs no longer exists. The old link (http://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/) redirects to another one (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/themes/) and there is no video on the page anymore. Attempting to perform the same steps on a different test page (https://tekeye.uk/html/html5-video-test-page) would not reproduce any unwanted behavior.

Closing this report as WORKSFORME.
